I question this. Does being an uttama-jiiva ipso facto mean having the ability

to expand into multiple, different forms simultaneously? Specifically, is this

(that being uttama-jiiva = ability to expand into multiple forms) the view of

the Maadhva tradition?

 

I do not know about the Madhva Tradition, but Srila Jiva Goswami says in Krishna

Sandarbha, quoting from Bhagavatham that the associates of Krishna also expanded

when Krishna got married.Narada Muni also expanded to see those marriage

ceremonies in different places.Similarly, Narada Muni exists simultaneously in

both Vaikuntha & in Janaloka(or Tapaloka!).The Liberated Jiva is Sathya

Sankalpa.But he expands by the Lord's Grace for His pastimes.
